In this episode, we'll focus on a series of truly unusual characters: having arrived in Italy with all the honors and great expectations, they have sometimes proven undisciplined, sometimes lacking talent, and in other cases simply unsuited to Italian football, which since the 1980s, with the reopening of borders to foreign players, has often been influenced by exotic names. We'll talk about football's flashes and duds: when Serie A gets things wrong.

From Renato, who was supposed to become the new King of Rome, to Claudio Daniel Borghi, who was the main source of friction between Berlusconi and Sacchi. From Gaizka Mendieta, who went from being the best midfielder in the Champions League to a mystery man, to the urban legends about Luis Silvio, the ice cream vendor, Jorge Caraballo, the taxi driver, and Michel Van de Korput, the cargo loader. And then there's Juventus' "Sad Tsar," Zavarov, and Darko Pancev, who transformed from a Cobra into a Lizard at Inter and responded to criticism with a Ferrari.

And what legendary "duds" do you remember? Leave your comments and watch the video to find out all the names!
